VASCULAR AGING-PREDICTING FACTOR AND UTILIZATION OF THE SAME
摘要
<p>It is intended to provide a factor which predicts vascular aging and a method of examining an early lesion caused by vascular aging. More specifically speaking, it is intended to provide: a factor predicting vascular aging which comprises human apolipoprotein B100 having a glutathionated thiol group; a method of examining a lesion caused by vascular aging which comprises measuring human apolipoprotein B100 having a glutathionated thiol group in a blood sample; an antibody capable of specifically recognizing apolipoprotein B100 having a glutathionated thiol group; and a diagnostic or a diagnostic kit for an early lesion caused by vascular aging which contains an antibody capable of recognizing human apolipoprotein B100 having a glutathionated thiol group.</p>
